Xiahou Dun said: "Yes, I was the one who received him, but I saw how tall and domineering this guy was and I didn't have a good impression of him. Until you came, I was still sitting on the tower thinking about it and thought that this guy was not my eldest brother. I was so optimistic about such an uncle, it turns out he is a liar."

"Oh, you haven't heard clearly yet. Not only is he a liar, but he is also a big liar. He is a liar pretending to be Liu Cong. Look at the eldest brother and us two brothers who suffered so much from being deceived by him.

The three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry here were all betrayed by him at some point. At this time, he had adapted them into Jingzhou cavalry.

I have become a bare general and I don’t have a single soldier under my command.

This tiger and leopard cavalry is the lifeblood of Prime Minister Cao. Now they have surrendered. Liu Cong has even gone with his men and horses. What should we do? [

Tell me, brother, can Prime Minister Cao spare my life when I go to the front line in Fancheng?"

"Oh, the sky is falling. Do you still have to think about it? You don't have to live anymore."

When Xiahou Dun said this, he slapped his butt and spun around in circles, saying: "I'm done, I'm done. The Prime Minister left Emperor Xian to my care. Who knew that Liu Cong pretended to be his uncle and came to deceive him? Cheated away

What's going on? Okay, brother, you're dead and I can't live either.

Oh my God, what should I do?"

After saying this, Xiahou Dun sat down and stared at the roof in a daze for a while before saying: "It doesn't matter if we die, but the world affairs that Prime Minister Cao has been busy with all his life will probably be wasted."

[Zhang Liao came prepared. When Xiahou Dun said this, he knew the heat was on. He nodded, pretended to think deeply, and asked in a serious tone: "Brother, what should we do now that you have reached this point?"

Xiahou Dun was so flustered that he couldn't make up his mind and said, "What do you think, brother, what should we do?"

So the two of them fell silent again. No one spoke first, and they were both thinking about their own way out.

After staying for a while, Xiahou Dun said: "No matter what our situation is, we will report the situation here to the Prime Minister truthfully and then wait for the Prime Minister's instructions."

"We have no choice but to do this," Zhang Liao said, but "Liu Cong has already led his troops to surround Xuchang City like an iron barrel. I'm afraid even the information cannot be sent out."

When Xiahou Dun heard this, he stood up straight and asked: "Didn't he only bring three thousand Jingzhou cavalry? Three thousand cavalry were fighting on the plains, charging into the battle, beheading generals and pulling flags. It was an unstoppable force, but the siege of the city was not his. "Strength"

"There are only 3,000 Jingzhou cavalry and hundreds of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers. They are all stationed outside Xuchang City at this time. Oh, brother, even a basin of cold water can't be poured out at this time."

Xiahou Dun frowned and thought for a moment and said: "Wancheng, Yuzhou and our Xuchang are the horns of each other. Each of these two cities has thousands of elite soldiers. Liu Cong is so courageous that he is not afraid that the elite soldiers of the two cities will steal his retreat."

"Oh, brother Liu Cong is not an ordinary person. It is said that he is one of the stars in the sky. It is not unreasonable. Who knows when he will take back all the Wancheng and Xuchang in one night? Now our Xuchang is already an isolated city. ah"

When Xiahou Dun heard this, he was surprised again. He looked straight at the ground with beads of sweat on his head and muttered: "What should we do? What should we do?" After muttering for a while, he turned around and came to the battle map hanging on the wall. He stared at the front and said: "Brother Wenyuan, although Wancheng and Yuzhou have been lost, Xuchang is hanging on the outpost alone, but the rear is connected to our Wei Dynasty. In the front, Prime Minister Cao leads an army of millions of people who are watching eagerly. The only way is to hold on to Xuchang and wait for the Prime Minister to lead him. The men and horses came back. Hum hum. Liu Cong's sneak attack was successful by chance, but he didn't know that he was deeply surrounded by our army. As long as he stood firm, the Prime Minister would definitely join forces for rescue. That's it.

Stick to Xuchang”

After Xiahou Dun said this, he thought for a while and then said: "Xuchang is the political and military center of the south that has been run by the Prime Minister for many years. If I don't hold on, it will be lost. The Yellow River and the south are not owned by the Prime Minister. Brother Wenyuan, please help me. You and I will work together to defend Xuchang and wait for the Prime Minister." Leading troops to rescue”

Zhang Liao listened and nodded in agreement and said: "This is the only way. But at this time, brother, Liu Cong's tens of thousands of troops have already surrounded Xuchang like an iron barrel. We only have three to five thousand troops. If everything is not possible without ambition, we must make plans based on the actual situation." take action[

Liu Cong is not a light-saving lamp. He traveled thousands of miles back and forth in one night to defeat Wancheng in Yuzhou without anyone noticing. His troops are really unpredictable. We have to be cautious. It is not easy to defend Xuchang."

However, Xiahou Dun was determined. Zhang Liao saw that it was not easy to dissuade him, so he was thirsty. When Xiahou Dun heard this, he felt that he was extremely thirsty, so he ordered some tea to be brought to quench his thirst.

The two of them were drinking tea here and suddenly heard the sound of artillery fire outside the city. Zhang Liao pretended to be surprised and asked: "Liu Cong has begun to attack the city."

Upon hearing this, Xia Hou hurriedly put down his tea bowl and stood up and said: "It's so fast! Grandma Liu Cong said it will be done and we will start to attack the city."

After saying this, Xiahou hurriedly left the Yamen and ran to the east city gate and lay down on the city walls. When he looked into the distance, he saw smoke and dust billowing on the ridge and a murderous atmosphere; when he looked towards the west of the city, there was also a murderous atmosphere.

Bursts of dust rose into the sky in the east and west of the city, and bursts of cannon fire were heard. Birds from far and near were startled and flew around in panic in the sky.

When Xiahou saw it, he hurriedly ordered everyone to go to the city to prepare for resistance.

Seeing the two or three thousand men and horses climbing up the city wall one after another, Xiahou felt timid in his heart, not because he was afraid, but because he was worried that he would not be able to defend Xuchang City, so he looked at Zhang Liao nervously.

Zhang Liao was also a famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty who had experienced many years of fighting. When he saw Xiahou's eyes, he understood what he was thinking, so he leaned over and whispered: "Brother, please be careful. I said that it is not enough for two armies to fight only if they have high ambitions, but they must also be based on reality." The situation determines your actions. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be victorious in every battle.”

When Zhang Liao said this, he looked at Xiahou and knew that he was tempted, so he continued to lie: "Our army of three to five thousand troops stationed in Xuchang City is really far different from the tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers."
